Helen and family: I sat beside David for many years at EPCO. Always the gentleman, kind and courteous and spoke highly of his family ….. and loved his golf! After all the years spent in Fremont, I grieve the fact that he did not get to enjoy additional days of retirement, BUT …. he is in good hands now. GOD BLESS!

Dear Aunt Helen & Family,
Thinking of you all and sending our deepest sympathies. May your fond memories of your time together carry you though this sad time. I won’t forget the time we visited and went to Put-In-Bay and SeaWorld and kept loosing Uncle Dave. I remember there was a lot of “Where’d Uncle Dave go?” Now I am sure he is resting peacefully in God’s kingdom.
Xoxo
